A very nice vacation home, tastefully renovated, with attention to
detail. So comfortable that you like spending time indoors too. But only
in bad weather, if you have a private beach. Hares, squirrels, gophers,
hummingbirds and eagles can be observed on the terrace and in the
garden. In general, the garden! On the balcony you can enjoy the sound
of the sea and an incredible starry sky without light pollution. The
“bedroom view” is just like in the photos. And from the hosts you get
anytime great excursion tips. His story and the beautiful artwork of
John Beardman make the house something very special! We fell in love so
much that in the end we bought a painting as a souvenir.

Welcome to paradise!
Dear Stefanie and Marcus,
thank you so much for allowing us to stay in this beautifully renovated
vacation home!
Also thank you for all the wonderful tips. We did a whole lot of the
things you suggested. We enjoyed the week to the fullest. The kids had
so much fun at the beach and thanks to the barbecue grill we chilled out
in the evenings with burgers and steaks. We wish you a lot of friendly
guests to enjoy this beautiful house and your hospitality!
